How to display full screen image.

[SashaFromRussia]

In my VB application I need to display full screen images, one at the time. Only image should be visible, nothing else.
Is this possible? How to do that?
Unfortunately, I'm not a programmer. A short sample will help me a lot.
Thanks in advance.

In the properties window of the form set controlbox to false and remove the caption of the form and then in the forms code window place the following code inside
[tt]
Option Explicit

Private Sub Form_Load()

Me.Left = 0
Me.Top = 0
Me.Width = Screen.Width
Me.Height = Screen.Height

End Sub
[/tt]

Ok, now that will make the form take up the entire screen including overlapping the windows start bar.

Now you can use the loadpicture function to load the picture directly to the form but if the picture is not as large as the form then you will be able to see the bottom and/or left of the form behind the picture. You can get around this by using an image control with its stretch property set to true but then you may get some undisirible effect of stretching a narrow image.

Good Luck
